Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Information belongs to someone else

Consumer Complaint: Below are the open and close dates for each of the disputes I have opened with Discover. Each time I ask them to provide proof that I opened the account they ask for my information ( which I have given to them more than once ) and they send me billing statements which I do not recognize at all. I provided proof of address of my residence through a bank statement ( attached ) which shows a different address than the one that was used to open the Discover account. Also attached is the last dispute letter I sent out as well as bank statements from XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX to show I still have access to this bank account. 1. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XXXX 2. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XX/XX/XXXX 3. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XX/XX/XXXX 4. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XX/XX/XXXX 5. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX XX/XX/XXXX

Issue: Improper use of your report

Subissue: Credit inquiries on your report that you don't recognize

Consumer Complaint: XXXX Credit Reporting company refused to " delete '' two ( 2 ) Hard Inquiries, both of which I've never applied for credit! Experian shows one ( 1 ) Hard Inquiry - XX/XX/XXXX from Discover Credit Card Company. However, upon reviewing XXXX 's website WITH HAVING TO PAY for a Premium Revolving charge Membership, I am looking at THEIR report on me and there's two ( 2 ) Hard Inquiries! The 2nd is from XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX. I never have applied for credit with XXXX XXXX, either! I already called both Companies and they couldn't confirm or find any application for credit. Both directed me to XXXX and XXXX and XXXX XXXX. Today, after being told by a fraud department agent named XXXX, that they " XXXX '' can not and will not remove the 2 incorrect Hard Inquiries. XXXX doesn't want my XXXX Score to rise. XXXX hung up on me when I asked to have a supervisor contact me. The call ended at XXXX MST and my calls are automatically recorded & stored. I'm sure they recorded the call, too. Both Agents were incredibly rude, inept at facts, and evidently weren't trained in U.S. Credit Federal Law. My request ... I WANT BOTH INCORRECT HARD INQUIRIES DELETED/REMOVED! I ALSO WANT XXXX TO CRITIQUE THEIR 2 PHONE AGENTS, PRIMARILY, XXXX. I can upload the actual phone call file if needed. I will attach the image screenshot of the 2 Hard Inquiries that are on my XXXX Credit Report. Moreover, I'm requesting AGAIN ( 2nd time ) for XXXX Credit to ALSO DELETE/REMOVE the Indicator of " seeking credit '' from my report and as it factors into my XXXX Credit Report and ALL FORMS OF MY XXXX SCORES, including but not limited to, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, etc. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX

Though I have a XXXX account, it was never was linked to this bank account and there is no history of any such activity in my account..

Issue: Incorrect information on your report

Subissue: Account information incorrect

Consumer Complaint: I filed three complaints with Discover Card regarding an cash back offer that they advertised a full cash back after 13 months of usage. I opened the account. At the third month I noticed they listed the accumulated cash back that was {$.00} for each transaction. At the third month I called Discover Card and they said I misunderstood the offer. I did not misunderstand anything, they say one thing to get a consumer to enroll and throw it out the window at their convenience with {$.00} cash. WHO would accept a cash back of {$.00} for 13 months of purchases. I called Discover who insisted I misunderstood their offer. I didn't misunderstand anything, they're offer was bogus and denial. The second two complaints were to XXXX and XXXX because each month my credit card was dropping. I was at XXXX and for unexplained or valid reasoning, my score had dropped to XXXX. WHY? I have no outstanding loans, nothing overdue so what is the reason for the drop. There is no reason, it's their perogative to do as they please with my credit without any recourse for THEIR actions. How could my score to drop so severely with no issues anywhere. Key Factor 1 Number of accounts with delinquency Key Factor 2 Lack of recent installment loan information Key Factor 3 Too few accounts currently paid as agreed Key Factor 4 Length of time accounts have been established No. 1, I have NO DELINQUENT accounts. No. 2, I have no loans for their " lack of recent installment loan '' information. I don't even know what that means since I have NO LOANS. No. 3, Too few accounts currently paid as agreed. I have two accounts, one from Discover which I opened for emergencies only, and my credit/debit account through my bank which I use every day. No. 4, Length of time accounts have been established. If the company makes a mistake such as Master Card charging me twice for the same issue, not fixing it for days, I DON'T TRUST them or their accounting. I despise paying interest so I pay cash to live. I have a house, paid for, I have a car, paid for, I have to eat, paid at time of purchase, I order through XXXX almost every day and everything I purchase is automatically deducted from my bank Credit/Debit Account. This seems to me a rack that CFPB is allowing and condoning. I have no outstanding bills of any kind yet reading Discover 's report I sound like a deadbeat, especially when it is not true. Furthermore, Discover 's cancelling my account is the result of my initial complaint, not for any of the reasons they cite, which will decrease my score again because now I have a credit card cancelled by Discover. It appears Discover is penalizing me for filing a legitimate complaint that they have a duty to answer, not disregard and cancel. Your job is to protect the consumer, you just accept what they say as gospel and consumers are negatively effected. This is all beyond comprehension putting consumers at the mercy of the what the credit card company says. XXXX was just hacked, so why should they have any financial business with my credit? This is a chase your tail game set up by the government and they continue to impune my and other consumer 's credit TO THEIR BENEFIT, leaving the consumer helpless to correct anything. I work very hard to incur no bills or delinquencies and instead of being rewarded as a good customer, I'M PUNISHED,

Issue: Problem with a purchase shown on your statement

Subissue: Credit card company isn't resolving a dispute about a purchase on your statement

Consumer Complaint: I placed an order with XXXX on XX/XX/2020. I did not receive my order. I made it clear to both XXXX and Discover that it would have been impossible for the packages to be delivered as no one was home and my property has a locked gate and a big dog with a dog warning label. The only possible place the package could have been delivered was either a neighbors hour or the sidewalk. None of my neighbors have the package and it is no where near my property. Discover refuses to grant the dispute in my favor because XXXX provided proof of delivery. But, there was no signature or picture provided confirming proof of delivery. I have paid XXXX $ for products I did not receive. This not okay.

Issue: Problem with a credit reporting company's investigation into an existing problem

Subissue: Their investigation did not fix an error on your report

Consumer Complaint: Discover Financial Services XXXX This account was opened XX/XX/2019 and removed from my credit files XX/XX/2019. I have not had any issues with XXXX or XXXX. Discover Financial Services reinserted this account back to my XXXX credit file without verifying that I owe anything. Neither Discover Financial Services nor XXXX have provided documents proving I granted Discover Financial Services permission to post to my credit profile. XXXX did not offer any explanation of how Discover Financial Services was verified. Discover Financial Services continuously violates 15 USC sections 1692 A E and XXXX allows it. Discover Financial Services refuses to provide contracts with my signature proving I agreed to do business with Discover Financial Services. It is unfair as a consumer that I have to endure unfair credit reporting practices from Discover Financial Services and XXXX. This account was charged off 7 times. XXXX has continued to ignore my requests to remove this account and stated in writing that unless I send in relevant information they will not investigate my dispute yet XXXX has not shared information with me on how Discover Financial Services was able to prove I owe anything. I feel helpless because these companies are allowed to treat us however they want and are allowed to get away with it. I even read in the Fair Credit Reporting Acts that once an account is removed it can not be reinserted to a consumers credit profile. How are these companies allowed to get away with this?

Issue: Communication tactics

Subissue: Frequent or repeated calls

Consumer Complaint: They started around the first of XXXX. They call saying they are from Discover Card and want to offer a savings rate for paying debts. I have told them I am already on a payment plan with Discover Card. I also tell them not to call again or add me to their do not call list. They continue to call several times a day. When I try to repeat that I am already on a payment plan and not to call again they hang up. They also try calling under another number.
